Evaluation

KARAKARA is a visual novel that launched on June 27, 2016. The developer, calme (published by Sekai Project), released a sequel — KARAKARA2 — in November 2017, and the final piece of add-on content for the original game, an 18+ adult content DLC, shipped on October 5, 2018. Both DLC items listed on the store (the original soundtrack and the adult content patch) are fully released. There are no unreleased DLC entries, no announced future content, and no roadmap or developer statements pointing to anything further for this title. The developer's own column, posted in February 2017, explicitly closed out the KARAKARA column series and noted uncertainty about future entries. All post-launch content has shipped, the sequel has been released as a separate product, and the developer has made no communications about additional content for the original game since October 2018.

About this game

Let us live

on this land so arid.


KARAKARA. It is the sound of aridity. It is the sound of dry asphalt and sandy winds. It is the sound of relentless sunshine, as well as the sound of a withering race.

The "Age of Dusk." It is a time of senescence for the human species, during which hybrids known as the "Others"—those who are human, yet not—exist in great numbers. On the windswept barrens of a land without moisture, a small gathering of people make their living in a world they no longer know. Down a stretch of highway and far from the heart of the town are two such people who run a small diner. To them, the circumstances that reshaped their world is of far less concern than the number of lunch boxes they can load into their delivery vehicle. After all, leaving customers hungry is not good for business, and business keeps them fed. Day after day, they occupy themselves with the endless work of their store. However, the comfortable monotony of their daily lives is turned on its head when they discover a large suitcase by the roadside on their way home from deliveries. Lying on the suitcase, unmoving, is a young girl with pink hair...

Though parched, they keep each other company,

and while hollow, they fill each other's voids.

So shall they live

on this land so arid.
